I am a currently a Jehovah's Witness and I am in the process of trying to leave quietly or "under the radar" so to speak. This video fits Jehovah's Witnesses perfectly. I wish I researched more before joining, but at the time, I was so brainwashed I never thought to question anything. To anyone that invites them into their homes - please be careful and research them out before you make a commitment.
hey, ppl... society is a cult also... the cult of consuming, material wealth and fitting into certain ideals... the cult of cars, cheap entertainment, and mindless gossip. The cult of serving economy.
there's some kind of cult / consensus reality everywhere you go, the question now is, towards what you want to move... a cult of economy and nonsensical bullshit, or some cult which actually adresses basic human needs.
Salient points-interesting performance-with some things that some would find the music is rather entraining, which seems to me to be a "driving" film clip...the kind used in cults or mind control as in MK Ultra or the work of Dr Jose Delgado. Tavistock needs to be researched to see the social engineering at hand
This exactly describes the Transedental Meditaion movement, especially towards the end; we are perfect it is YOU that is "un-stressing". Well done video, it really touches on how brainwashing is actually acomplished.
Actually he's never killed anyone. The killings occurred at the hands of others, who in spite of being claimed to be "possessed" or whatever the word is by Charles Manson's charisma, cannot be excused from their actions in any way. It's the same as the old adage: If someone tells you to jump off a bridge, you don't have to do it. He is crazy as a shit house rat though.
this is funny! america as a nation conforms to those very criteria. the group that promotes this fall in the same category as the video portreys. on their site they have a banner against free choice. hmm so do they support free thought or are they trying to control behavior? are they saying that their ideology answers all question? so in all this video attacks other groups who dont believe their particular way. a cult is a circle centered around an ideology or ideal including political ones.
agree! but are you an island? is it about you? or are you one part of a much larger puzzle? any group collected around an ideology of any sort is a cult! the country you live in is a cult centered around the ideology of americanism and it's constitution. a tree is known by the fruit that it bears. a cult is neither good nor bad it is only a word that means circle, you probably have your own. cirtain ones have made it a bad word to protect their interest, sadly. theres no one immune from a cult.
a cult is nothing more nothing less than a circle a clic anything centered around an ideology is a cult. whether nation, state,religion, or sewing circle. the earliest cults were craft guilds which evolved into religons in the eyes of the uninitiated. current ideas generally were developed to combat new religions and traditions foreign to the majority in america. or that challenged status quoe.
see this is why i go bye the motto " trust no one". i once hurt my of my friend for asking me about my social life. the human mind can be easily manipulated based on the fact that the people who are trying to manipulate us are human and origanilly think the same way we do and it is the people who are weak willed with themselves that eventually drives them to believe that anyone could be a higher power who could help save and inlighten them and that is why cults are becoming so rapid these days
I really like the ironic instructional video format of such a dark matter, but cults always front as light & fluffy organizations anyway.
It gets into some pretty extreme forms of cults, but there are more secular "cults:" 'personal development' schemes and 'wealth-building' programs who use the SAME exact methods to recruit and maintain members.
no, all religions can BE cultic but not all are, with "cultic" being defined as extremist and authoritarian that controls people by coercion and mind control at the expense of their spiritual and psychological health
Actualy what I see all religions interfere in ones physiological needs, whether it´s food or sexual, as well as clothes. Even yoga attemps to control one´s breathing. Controling ones most primary needs make one get controling power over that individual or group which no one has right to. Why we believe them may depend on our natural need to trust and believe an authority.
@Ben1607 Exactly, Where do people think these leaders got the idea from? The biggest religions give you a god, lie to you control you and take from you. EVERY RELIGION!!!!!
The same group dynamics you see here do indeed go on in dysfunctional relationships. Ever meet someone who became a puppet to someone they looked up to just bit too highly? How about the brutal father over his son? The domineering wife over her husband? The "lover" who treats their significant other like trash, but who can predict that they'll always fall in line with them? Etc etc etc ..
This is reality, friends. We humans are more pliable then we want to think. Cultic movements bank on this
I completely agree. This is of course no secret, certain people has been banking on this fact throughout all time. The best way to manipulate someone is to teach them something they don't already know that will impact their life significantly. They will then accept your position as more knowledgable then themselves. Once that power-relationship is established, you can manipulate them easily. This is just 1 mechanism though. Know as many as you can, and avoid being a victim of any manipulation.
All religions serve the same purpose. power, mind control over masses and absolute authority. only ignorant and vulnerable people can believe the sci fi stories of the bible with all its contradictions or follow a pedophile loser called Mohammed. Religion is a human invention to lead weak minds and the reason why millions have been butchered since the beginning of christianism, islam etc.. and will keep being killed in the name of God, Allah, whatever. Religion is evil.
So your childhood was basically a cult according to these rules. You get love bombed by your parents, then they tell you how to act, what to eat, they make you feel guilty for doing things they tell you is wrong. They tell you not to associate with bad people.
From my experience, just saying the word CULT around a JW would set off a reaction. Deep down they know they are in a cult but will not admit it because they firmly buy the divine revelation of faithful servant class bullshit.
Reminds me of my stint with University Bible Fellowship. I never made it past the love bombing though. I was feeling very religious at the time and slowly moved farther away.
Amazing! What is exposed here exists in society, flying under the radar, more than you know. Think of an obsessed person who creates a 'cult of one' with an individual. Control the person being obsessed over, and enlarge the influence of the cult by infiltrating doctors, therapists, family, etc.
Studies by Sandra Brown and the Dangerous Relationships Institute will show an example.
Important film. Well done. It makes a load of sense.
Good video. The implication though is that they're all trying to sell you a flawed idea. I don't think the intent is always malicious. These methods are just a means to an end and the method alone doesn't imply that the belief itself is wrong. All popular belief systems psychologically manipulate their followers, cults just use more modern techniques. Sometimes you need to pry someones eyes open to make them see, or lull someone to sleep in order for them to dream.
Cool video. I always wanted to start my own cult but I've had trouble finding a good guide, thanks. This is a step by step guide of how scientology came to be. Unfortunately they never had any poison punch.
